BENIN—FEAR has gripped armed robbers and kidnappers in Edo State, following the curse placed on evil doers in the state, by the Benin monarch, Oba Erediauwa, as Vanguard was reliably informed that hundreds of them have stormed the Palace of the Oba to plead for forgiveness, so as to escape the wrath of the gods.

Meanwhile, thousands of women from the seven local government areas in Edo South Senatorial District of the state, thronged the traditional Urhokpota ground, weekend, to place curses on those involved in the endless cases of kidnappings, armed robberies and other violent crime in the state.

Vanguard learnt that the alleged criminals, who stormed the Palace to ask for forgiveness have been parading the Palace without getting any answer to their problem. They were, however, advised to change from their ways or die.

Vanguard learnt that they were still scared, whether the curse will affect them since they were yet to receive any assurance of forgiveness. Some bankers who leak information to kidnappers about their customers, have also fled the ancient city for the fear of death.

The women in the kingdom, led by Chief Isekhure, followed suit, weekend. The women dressed in red attires, had several ritual materials, which include dogs, fowls, rams which were slaughtered and their blood splashed on the ground, symbolizing death that was expected to visit those behind the robbery and kidnaping activities in the city.

President, Market Women Association of Nigeria, Madam Amalawa Edebiri, explained that the ceremony was to lay curse on the kidnappers and criminals in the state.

The old ways are still strong o!

Praying in jesus name can't do anything close to this if this story is true. Fear of the real thing is still in our blood as Africans. Nice one from the king and women!!!!!!! All evil doers shall fall. A new age has begun.

lol

Up jass!
There was an article recommending "traditional" methods to "realign" the morality of our politicians. . .

Please LET's use this for the Politicians AS WELL !


The power of JUJU !

Nice one!


Just imagine that these politifcians were sworn in with Juju instead on Bible and Koran, they won't be looting the way they do.

But Africans don't have faith in their own method anymore just because the white man asked us to.

All na fluke.are you guys saying that there wont be kidnapping and armed robbery in edo state again?.most politicians are cultist or engage in cult-related activities;so oath taking is no big deal to them besides they should have remedies for every curse.

By the time they see the sort of "armaments" Omo N'Oba N'Edo Uku Akpolokpolo can muster, they will know that mere scud missiles are in a minor category compared to nuclear tipped ballistic missiles.

Nor be nigeria?,where low profile criminals are naturally dumber than the high profile ones,the politicians.To a rational mind,it is delusion but to a deluded mind,it is a way of life.

Don't get me wrong,i have always said that juju oath taking will have more psychological impact on the corrupt officials in nigeria than the bible and koran.Since we are relatively a very primitive society,our believe in ancestoral spirit and their instant wraths have a way of binding the society together and ostracizing the evil ones,

I have once asked a question on culture section of how local nigerian farms that are usually located far away from home are protected from hungry thieves without fence,guards or any form of security whatsoever.

I had the privilege of seeing such things first hand in Arondizuogu in Ideato LGA of IMO state in 1996 when my cousin went there to perform the traditional marriage ceremony (Igba nkwu) of his wife who hails from the town.

When we got there, the single most noticeable thing about the town was that houses and compounds had no fences. I was puzzled and inquired about this. The response was that no one dared steal in that town. People basically went to markets and other places with their doors wide open.

I don't know whether the same thing still happen today in Arondizuogu. But I know it used to happen.

;DWhat of the Yaho-Yaho guys that use Jass on EFCC
;DOther Nigerians that do Demons

The fact that you don't respect your Parents @ home does not give you the Impudence to start looking down on other peoples parents

With due respect to Oba of Benin, this is an 'idle curse'.

This is not year 1510 but 2010. Nobody is born as armed robber, it is a process.

The same ritual was performed in the late 80s. Few weeks later the notorious Lawrence Anini and his gang were felled.

Some people are born with the traits to become an armed robber. So armed robbers can be born.

At last some solution !!!
